I enjoyed every page of this book. It was exciting! It's something a man would enjoy, & something a woman would enjoy....but for different reasons. The love story component of this book took me back to my own falling in love experience, & the action/danger/thrilling component was intriguing & captivating. Another great book by a very interesting & unique author.
